Our crew cleans gutters across Spokane, flushing every downspout, hauling everything away, and taking photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your square footage and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give on the phone is the number on your invoice. Most customers book in spring and fall.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
Pricing for gutter cleaning services in Spokane homes comes down to stories, square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. We give the estimate over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Some companies price by the linear foot, and that gets to a similar place, but the stories and the roofline matter more than the foot count. Spokane WA gets about 24 inches of precipitation and about 45 inches of snow a year, with the wettest months in January, November and December, so a gutter that is full going into winter carries a real load.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run well up in the air, gutters that have not been opened in years and carry a heavy buildup of compacted leaves and grit, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can reach the trough. Flushing each downspout, checking the water flow and debris removal are all included and never billed as extras. Clogged downspouts are flushed on the same visit, and any clog at the outlet is found before we leave. If something changes the job once we are on site, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice. The same three inputs price commercial properties as well as houses.
Here is what a skipped cleaning looks like. Our crew has run into a rain gutter where a clog at the elbow had been holding water back for seasons, and the sag at the run was the first sign of trouble. Packed leaves and debris in a neglected run can drive water back into the fascia and cause structural damage over time. A clean trough and a flushed downspout restore drainage and keep water away from the house, which is the whole point of the visit.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house, and we will give you a quote from there.

Downspouts flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled, photos of every run. The quote already has all of it in.
Our crew clears every gutter run by hand, not just the stretch you can see from the driveway. Roof valleys and the area above the gutter line are blown clear first, so the next rain does not refill what was just emptied. Every downspout is flushed with water and watched until it runs clear at the bottom; one that will not clear is worked from the top where it can be reached. Where a downspout feeds an underground drain line, the crew checks that water is leaving at the outlet and tells you if it is not; clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Debris goes into bags and leaves with the truck. It is not blown onto the lawn, the deck or next door. The ground is left as it was found.
Before the crew leaves you get photos of every run and every downspout, before and after, on your phone, whether or not you were home. Anything the crew sees that is not a cleaning problem, a hanger pulled loose, a seam dripping, a run sitting flat, is photographed and reported, not repaired and not sold on the spot.
What can change the number, and you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice: a third story or a roof too steep to walk; gutters that have not been touched in years; guards that have to come off and go back on.
Twice a year for most houses: once after the spring seed and pollen drop, once after the last leaves fall.
Most of our customers book two visits a year, one each in spring and fall. Across Washington the spring visit falls in mid to late June, after the seed and pollen drop. The fall visit in Spokane WA lands in late October to November, after the last leaves come down. In spring the seed casings and pollen paste cause a blockage at the downspout elbows. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs sagging by March under the weight of ice. Most people wait until a stain, a leak or a clog shows up before they clean your gutters, and by then the fascia has been wet for a while.
Freeze-belt winters here are why the fall visit matters most, and a gutter cleaning service visit in late October clears the trough before it can freeze. Water sitting in a clogged trough along the roofline can freeze at the eave and form ice dams that lift shingles from underneath. A rainwater backup that freezes is much harder to deal with than one that drains in October.
Under heavy tree cover, with big trees over the roof, our customers are on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspout between visits. Near a busy road, active construction or a heavily planted landscape the schedule is similar. For most residential properties with few trees overhead, once a year in late fall is enough, and regular gutter cleaning on that schedule is the simplest gutter maintenance there is. The same schedule logic applies to residential and commercial buildings. Guards cut down how often the trough fills, but debris removal still has to happen on top of them, so the schedule drops rather than disappears.
After the first visit we tell you which of those tiers your lot actually needs.
Water over the edge rots the board behind the gutter first. Everything after that is slow, and slow is what a policy excludes.
The three signs. Water pouring over the front edge in rain instead of out of the downspout. A run that sags, sits low or has pulled away from the fascia. Plants growing out of the trough. Any one of them means the gutter is full.
What happens next. Water that cannot drain sits in the trough and spills behind it. The fascia board rots, then the soffit. Water backs up under the first course of shingles and shows up as a ceiling stain. Siding stains and swells. Below, the overflow cuts a channel at the foundation and finds the basement. The wet debris itself weighs enough to pull the gutter off the house. Standing water breeds mosquitoes; dry debris houses wasps. Where winters freeze, the trapped water becomes an ice dam at the eave and lifts the shingles from underneath.
Why your policy will not pay. Homeowners insurance generally does not cover water damage traced to clogged gutters. Carriers class gutter cleaning as routine maintenance, and damage from skipped maintenance as preventable neglect, which a standard policy excludes. A limb that tears a gutter off in a storm is sudden and accidental and is usually covered; a fascia board that rotted over two years is not. This is general information, not insurance advice; read your policy or ask your agent.
Guards stop leaves. They do not stop needles, seeds, grit or the paste they turn into. The job gets shorter, not gone.
Yes, guarded gutters still need cleaning, less often, and it is a different job: clearing what sits on top of the guard and checking that water is actually getting in, rather than scooping out the trough. Mesh and screen guards hold whole leaves off. Pine needles thread through, seed casings and pollen mat on top, roof grit settles underneath, and once that mat is wet, rain runs over it and off the front edge. The gutter is empty and the water never went in.
Guards earn their keep under big leafy trees and on roofs too high to want to climb. They do not end maintenance, whatever the installer said. Our crew lifts the panels, clears underneath, flushes the downspouts and reseats the guards; tell us what is on the house when you get the quote and it is priced as a guarded system, which usually runs shorter than an open one.
Under an hour on most houses. Nobody has to be there, and the photos arrive either way.
The crew calls the day before with an arrival window and again when they are on the way. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical home; bigger houses, steep roofs and gutters left for years run longer. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. Before they arrive: side gate unlocked, cars off the driveway if runs face it, pets inside while ladders are up. Ladder stand-offs keep the ladder off the gutter lip and the siding. After: photos of every run and downspout before the truck leaves, and an invoice that matches the quote.
Send us a photo or a short video in the rain. You hear what it is before anyone talks about money.
Still overflowing. A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in rain has a slope, capacity or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. If that happens after a cleaning, send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we tell you what it actually is; we do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
The number. The price quoted on the phone is the price on the invoice. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before they start, never after.
Your house. Stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip, and screens and downspout extensions go back where they were.
Payment. The balance is charged when the job is finished and the photos are on your phone. Some dates take a small booking fee to hold the slot, and you hear about it before you book.
The whole city and the towns around it, booked by phone or text from the nearest crew.
Our Spokane gutter cleaning crew works the whole city from the nearest base and serves the neighborhoods where homeowners book us. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text, using your stories, your size and your tree cover. A photo of the front of the house helps if it is easy to send, and it lets us quote the gutters and downspouts without a second call. Twig and needle loads show up in the photo too. If the house has gutter guards, say so on the call, since lifting and reseating them is part of the quote. Lead time depends on the season, and the two busiest windows of the year are the spring visit and late fall, when our calendar fills fastest.
Our cleanings run the same way every time, and we flush every downspout before the crew leaves. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. The crew works from the outside, so a homeowner does not need to clear anything inside. If you want to get your gutters on the schedule before the next rain, call early in the week and we will find the closest open date. We aim to protect your home from water damage before storm season hits across Washington, and a clean gutter system is the simplest way to keep your gutters working through heavy rainfall and to keep a leak from starting at the fascia.
We also do the surrounding areas, and if you have a question about a particular property, call (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you what the crew can do. If you want cleaning and maintenance on the same visit, say so on the call and our gutter services get booked for both.
Our cleaning services in Spokane are priced from stories and size, and we give the estimate by phone or text. We do not guess from the street view. Tell us the stories and the rough square footage and we will quote the job before the crew is scheduled.
Most of our customers book a spring visit and a late fall visit. Across Washington the spring visit falls in mid to late June, and across Spokane the fall visit lands in late October to November. Spring cleaning clears the seeds and pollen, and fall cleaning clears the leaves before the freeze. If you wait until winter, we usually find ice at the eave and sagging runs that need more than a simple clean.
Same-day slots are not something we can promise, so we confirm the date when you call and give you the earliest open slot.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, we flush every downspout and watch the water until it runs clear at the bottom. Where a downspout feeds an underground line, we check that water is leaving at the outlet and tell you if it is not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before we touch it.
Yes. Guards keep the leaves out, but on our jobs we find needles, seed casings and grit sitting on top of the guard and packing underneath it. Guards do not replace gutter maintenance, and a heavily planted landscape sheds more of that grit. The surface still needs clearing, so the schedule gets shorter, not dropped to zero.
The goal is keeping water away from your home. A clean gutter system that still spills over the front edge in rain has a slope or capacity problem, not a buildup problem, and left alone that spill is how fascia rot starts. Send us a photo or a short video taken during the rain, and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Only if something changes the job, and you hear about it before work starts. The gutter cleaning process runs the same way every time, and the number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
